Can you please point us to such a published article preferably with a link.
Thank you,

Ok, I wasn't sure that's what you were talking about. All of your links except one are to the same site:
Neuropolitics.org. Nothing on that site is published nor does it qualify as scientific research. I explained this in my previous post. It seems to be a kind of talking-points-hoax complete with rhetoric about homosexual liberals who are prone to mate outside their own race and pictures of the burning world trade center towers. The best it has in the way of research is an online quiz form that anyone can fill out.
I'm not sure if you actually do fail to understand the problem with this or if you just prefer not to admit it, but regardless, your statement: "numerous research articles already published" is inconsistent with the multiple links to that weird site.

Your first post is one sentence long and doesn't explain anything. It does, however, have a link to a real media source:
Study finds liberal-conservative difference in brain functioning
Which talks about a Los Angeles times story found here:
Study finds left-wing brain, right-wing brain
Which talks about a study published in
Nature Neuroscience. It doesn't name the study, but fortunately gives the name of the lead author: David Amodio of NYU. Looking him up, I found his website with a list of publications:
David Amodio
From this I deduced that the study you're refering to is titled:
Neurocognitive correlates of liberalism and conservatism 2007. With the title and author, I was able to go to
Google Scholar and search for the publication online. After trying four or five archives that required membership, I found one that was available free and online:
http://www.psych.nyu.edu/amodiolab/A...re%20Neuro.pdf
Which is what I was asking for when I said "Can you please point us to such a published article preferably with a link. Thank you, ~modest"
Now that I have the one published study that I believe you were talking about, I will look at it and see if it supports what you say:

But that will have to be tomorrow because I'm very tired.
will get back to you...
